言语难以形容如此反常理的动画，就像同样难以形容《EVA》一样。《吊带袜天使》(Panty＆Stocking with Garterbelt)是GAINAX制作的13集动画。尽管我自认为看过一些动漫，对二次元还是颇有了解，但我从来不认同自己是二次元。我对二次元一直保持一种切割的态度——被捧上神坛的《CLANNAD》并不能引起我太多波澜；《jojo》的智斗和勇气让我喜欢，除此无他；《紫罗兰永恒花园》和《四月是你的谎言》不过非常一般；长篇连载《火影》和《死神》都比较low和肤浅，而且还烂尾：《Lycoris》好看、可爱，但是在我心里基本等同泡面番：《Darling in the Franxx》硬伤严重，但是我很喜欢里面的价值观……我一直想，二次元是否是一种悲哀？详细地说，在虚拟的世界中寻找真实感的人是否是脑子瓦特了？对不起，二次元群体。你们其中的一些是我的好朋友，我也明白二次元现实生活中远非一无是处（就像网上键盘侠实际上大多十分遵纪守法一样），但是这个问题一直萦绕在我心中。

直到某一天我看了《EVA》和《天元突破》，之后不可收拾地喜欢上了这种作品。在我心中可以上升到一定高度的作品，终于有了二次元的一席之地——GAINAX的几部经典《天元突破 红莲螺岩》，《EVA》，《吊带袜天使》和勉强排得上号的扳机社的《普罗米亚》。

《吊带袜天使》讲述的是两位天使（？）Panty和Stocking在天堂和地狱之间的D City消灭恶灵的故事。乍看起来十分美式的画风、毫不遮拦的色情段子和脏话、充斥屏幕的恶心事物（粪便、鼻屎、垃圾……），让我一开始找不着头脑。但是慢慢看下去，我发现这不啻我们的伟大赞歌。

我大爱的最后几集：

奶奶：Panty我就快走了，老头子在等着我。
Panty：奶奶……
奶奶：Panty，不是也有人在等着你吗？
Panty：奶奶，你在说什么傻话啊！
奶奶：瞧，就在那边。（指向远方被捆起来的Brief）
Panty：死宅……
奶奶：去做你现在最想做的事吧。
Panty：但我想要做的根本就没有件正经事……
奶奶：你是个女人吧？女人做-爱做的事又有什么错？
Panty：奶奶……
奶奶：女人啊，始终不受任何束缚，自由的生物哩。万一不行了，叫男人帮你擦屁股就行了。走想走的路，做-爱做的事，自由地活下去吧。再见了，婊-子天使。
Panty：奶奶……再见了，奶奶。

Corset：哦哦，这不是婊子女孩吗，在此重逢深感欣慰。但是由于那蠢货一样的天使处女膜再生而失去力量，现在不外乎婊子一只的你，事到如今还能有何作为？
Panty：如你所言，现在的我仅仅是个婊子，不，婊子都不如。正因为这样，才不会被后悔这样的高贵（搞鬼）情操所束缚。
Corset：嗯？
Panty：婊子这玩意啊，是个没有束缚，不无法束缚的自由之物。我就是婊-子！管你是处女膜还是恶魔（一边走一边脱衣服），妨碍到我的一律毁掉！
Corset：什么！
Panty：给我记好，我是婊-子天使，panty！我想干什么，马上就干！（扯掉了最后一件衣服）

Corset：懂了吗？贱种口口声声叫唤的自由，说到底不过是个幻象！在名为现实的束缚面前，所谓自由，毫无意义，毫无价值，毫无效果！（Panty面无表情地扯掉了最后一条“裤子”）像你这样的渣滓天使无论干啥都是空忙一场！
Brief：Panty？
Panty：（坐上Brief身上温柔地）来吧，把没做完的事解决掉。
Brief：但、但是你……
Panty：（微笑）别小看了婊-子，你可是第一千个人。不过嘛，对现在的我来说，Brief，你就是第一个男人。天使的处女，就送给你喽……

Brief：是啊！死翘啦！Garter被杀了！
Stocking：嗯，是啊，总有一天会死的吧。
Brief：你们两个人一点都不伤心么！就算是我也不能接受！你们两个是货真价实的婊-子！总是自私任性胡搅瞎闹！就没有过认真起来的时候吗？
Panty：我们可是一直都是认真的！
Stocking：是啊，非常认真地在胡闹！

Je n'ai pas des temps. 抱歉我没时间仔细分析这部动漫。

影片中天使满口脏话、喜欢暴力、随意做爱，武器是内裤和过膝袜。而恶魔却口口声声“lulu”（规矩）。神父每天以sm惩罚自己，作为一个男人里面居然还穿了吊带网袜。打开恶魔封印的钥匙居然是Brief的阴茎。重新封印恶魔的居然是穿着性感内衣和白色吊带袜的上帝母亲。震撼人心的歌曲《D City Rock》片段中天使大喊anarchy，长出翅膀挣脱枷锁。……两位离经叛道的天使嘲讽一切规矩和传统美德，她们拒绝所有束缚、恣意妄为……这是对这个严肃世界的嘲讽，对这个不合群会被讨厌、强调责任与身份、充满条条框框的世界的最大轻蔑与不屑。这不就是酒神狄奥尼索斯反抗强权的精神吗！不就是Yosemite最初的攀岩者离经叛道、只为自由的精神吗！不就是Marcel Duchamp的伟大之处吗！Why so serious？这不就是当代（部分）攀岩者和登山者和千千万万信仰自由的各种意义上的反抗者的赞歌吗！

献给所有热爱自由的灵魂，愿你们无拘自由，愿你们尽情燃烧。

Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you
Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you
Though you can't see the sun,
A new day has begun
And I fall out of bed to a siren call
In the frame on the wall, see you in fire
You guys are smiling at me
And you inspire
Not good enough if I just let them get away
Not satisfied until I'm making them pay!
I'm a fool for adventure, you know?
Inside my heart, feeling the inferno!
Barely catching my breath
Lay my eyes on the crest
Gonna square up to all of the heat that is left
So I carry the torch, to inferno, inferno
It's out of the park, and I'm smiling again
Here we go
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
Say I don't understand
But I don't give a damn
Even told me that I wouldn't reach the top
But I follow my grandfathers' journey
I know I can be the man that I should be
I down a coffee, grab my axe and then I'm out
I got a rage inside that's making me shout
I get high on the fighting, you know?
Inside my heart, feeling the inferno!
Barely catching my breath
Lay my eyes on the crest
Gonna square up to all of the heat that is left
So I carry the torch, to inferno, inferno
It's out of the park, and I'm smiling again
Here we go
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you
Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you
All my life, been searching for
The place I lost, it's what I adore
And all my life, been hoping for
A happy life for me
Barely catching my breath
Lay my eyes on the crest
Gonna square up to all of the heat that is left
So I carry the torch, to inferno, inferno
It's out of the park, and I'm smiling again
Here we go
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I
Will be here for you
Wherever you go
Yeah, I know
Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you
Trails of fire, you always knew
They would carry me home,
They'd lead me to you

回到最初的问题，现在我怎么看二次元群体？引用Erich Fromm的一句话——参差百态乃幸福本源。二次元的和历史上或现代的其他群体并无不同。对于任何群体，我都会有喜欢的有不喜欢的，但是“相信的心就是你的魔法”，相信我们可以创造一个新的世界（尽管不知道这个世界是否会变好）。我最喜欢的不就是新的事物了吗？
